About the Jabiru
Named after the large South American bird with great balance the Jabiru is a bottle top stem.
My design was meant to increase the usefulness of the Kinkajou, providing users with more unique glassware options. It's a simple idea that lead to a simple design that can make your personalized glassware a hit at any party.


With the design completed and several prototypes later, the Jabiru is ready for the world, all it needs is a small financial push of $15,000 to get the first large manufacturing run going. The Kinkajou was my first kickstarter project and with all the unique glassware produced, bottle tops were all of a sudden in great supply and I wanted to put them to use as well. I spent some time finishing the edges on the cut bottle top and came up with the idea of the Jabiru. The Jabiru is a bottle top stem that slips easily onto virtually all bottle tops to provide a leak free base. The Jabiru is designed to fit all sizes of bottles, from small to large, providing a stable base for all bottle types. All of a sudden personalized glassware options have doubled.

I also wanted to take the time to thanks my wife and kids for supporting me during all the long weeks / months and travel around the world to make this a reality. I could not have done it without them.

Risks and challenges
The experience gained with the first Kickstarter project will be invaluable in the process of launching the Jabiru. I now have a strong relationship with a trusted manufacturer, experience with shipping products from overseas and in successfully promoting and selling products online. Many lessons that were learned along the way, and a strong commitment to providing a great product create the foundation upon which the Jabiru is being built. Although, I cannot fully guarantee there will be no issues in the manufacturing process, unforeseen issues can come up that could delay production. I am fairly confident everything will go smoothly, as the Jabiru is only two parts where the Kinkajou was over 70.
